Used to scare me that he'd ride the trend of the Biden years with things getting better at a moderate rate and then get credit, then his racism and clownish behavior would simply be ignored by too many bcs of the economy.
Many Countries, especially those who are affected by Iran’s attempted closure of the Hormuz Strait, will be sending War Ships, in conjunction with the United States of America, to keep the Strait open and safe. We have already destroyed 100% of Iran’s Military capability, but it’s easy for them to send a drone or two, drop a mine, or deliver a close range missile somewhere along, or in, this Waterway, no matter how badly defeated they are. Hopefully China, France, Japan, South Korea, the UK, and others, that are affected by this artificial constraint, will send Ships to the area so that the Hormuz Strait will no longer be a threat by a Nation that has been totally decapitated. In the meantime, the United States will be bombing the hell out of the shoreline, and continually shooting Iranian Boats and Ships out of the water. One way or the other, we will soon get the Hormuz Strait OPEN, SAFE, and FREE! President DONALD J. TRUMP
Days after declaring total victory and boasting that no other military could match the US, Trump is now begging other countries — including China — to send warships to stop his Iran war from spiraling into catastrophe.
A galactic humiliation.
You really can’t expect dod to worry about strategic issues when he’s busy making the military masculine again by demanding servicemembers have influencer abs and denigrating anyone in a non combat or civilian role www.wsj.com/politics/nat...
The Kushner brand is basically: I'm hear to offer peace deals and get money, and I'm all out of peace deals
This is, to put it mildly, a double standard. This guy was part of a government that encouraged online social media figures to engage in routine harassment of government employees to the point that many were fired or went into hiding. Some of it was done by Elon Musk, this guy's boss.
Love that the DOGE douche instantly went to "female". Amazing how often it's a tell.
how ironic to see the state protect two people who sought to strip the state while working under the direction of elon musk, who has made it impossible to seek recourse when people get death threats and harassment on twitter
This seems very wrong from 1st Am perspective. Clawing the videos back from public view is a drastic step, and “the video makes me look dumb” is hardly compelling. Especially when the deponents were testifying about their exercises of extraordinary govt power!

ah, the reputational damage of other people hearing the things you said and did
Iran had plans of taking over the entire Middle East, and completely obliterating Israel. JUST LIKE IRAN ITSELF, THOSE PLANS ARE NOW DEAD! President DONALD J. TRUMP
Trump is posting this stuff from the plane en route to a weekend getaway at his private club btw
Exclusive 1m ago The Trump administration will receive a $10 billion fee for brokering the deal that kept TikTok alive in the U.S.
JFC.
Impeach and remove this lawless man, you fools.
For the life of me I cannot understand why Ds are trying to out-Republican Rs on taxes **in this particular moment in time**
That's the sort of thing when you're getting blown out and desperate, not when you're looking at a D+13 or more midterm wave
• If there's one thing controversial CBS News editor Bari Weiss has earned praise for it's her hands-on booking of big names for the network. But there's one booking she seems to have blown up: New York mayor Zohran Mamdani, who had been in talks to appear for an interview on CBS News Sunday Morning with Robert Costa. Mamdani's team, I'm told, has long been averse to appearing on CBS given the coverage his campaign got from Weiss's The Free Press, but her recent social media post reacting with a fire emoji to an Iranian activist's diatribe against Mamdani was the "nail in the coffin" for him appearing on the network, two sources with knowledge told me. "Bari and her people have a clear axe to grind for him," said one former CBS producer. (CBS News did not respond to a request for comment.) And the network's turn away from news and toward opinion is proving to be a broader problem. "It's not just Zohran," the source said. "It's really
lol. CBS had been trying to get Zohran Mamdani for an interview, but Bari Weiss' deranged tweeting caused him to turn it down

Just so we're all clear, this is a war crime and would be punishable by life or death under U.S. law.
it's not just going to be serious debt people, tbh, like, it is actually going to a capital P problem by the time a dem takes office, not a made-up one, and anyone running for office this year or in two years is going to have to be part of a solution, we actually *can't* kick the can much further
Jews are more likely than any religious group (including Muslims, oddly) to support the right of people to speak in favor of a Palestinian state (“even if it might offend others”).
What an interesting finding.
Huh
Yet another wildly illegal thing that was just completely normalized in the press & then ignored completely, along with all the other things:

Tim Walz offering a positive vision of traditional masculinity and being loathed for it was low key one of the most blackpillling events of the past decade plus.
it is friday, march 13, 2020. global markets are in freefall. President Trump declares a national emergency over the covid pandemic.
it is friday, march 13, 2026.
ok in seriousness:
1. it's going to take 2wks for an MEU to even get to the strait
2. the assault component of an MEU is like, 1200 men. any attack on the iranian mainland would be suicide. They could maybe take one of the small islands? not Qeshm tho.
3. the MEU will eat UAVs all day if we do this
If the government really is worried about Iranian sleeper cells, then it was probably a mistake to systematically reorient the majority of US counterterror resources toward arresting immigrant grandmothers and five-year-olds in bunny hats
Oil produced in one place can be sent to another. That’s why the price of oil is global, after accounting for transportation and other factors. A decrease in supply anywhere raises the price everywhere. The notion we are immune to this because we are "self-sufficient" is nonsense.
"Economic growth was slower at the end of 2025 than data first showed and inflationary pressures persisted at the start of this year, a troubling snapshot of an economy on unsteady footing before war with Iran upended oil and financial markets."

Trump fired the people whose job it would be to warn him of the really obvious stuff.
The willingness of racists to sabotage their own lives just for the chance to hurt someone else continues to be the most perplexing part for me. I don't hate anyone more than I love myself.
WIRED named the DOGE operative accused here of planning to take Social Security data to his new job. It's John Solly, and he works for the government contractor Leidos, a company that has millions in contracts with SSA.

a while back a guy I knew was trying to justify having gone to Curtis Yarvin's wedding, and his girlfriend said "Don't you find him thrillingly contrarian' and I said 'That's how boring people excuse being racist'
